Synthetic lubricant base stocks having an improved pour point

摘要

Synthetic lubricant base stocks having a low pour point are disclosed. These synthetic lubricant base stocks comprise a mixture of (1) oligomers prepared from a linear olefin having from 10 to 24 carbon atoms; and (2) alkylated decalin having an alkyl group containing from 10 to 24 carbon atoms. These synthetic lubricant base stocks may be prepared by hydrogenating the co-reaction products of a linear olefin having from 10 to 24 carbon atoms and naphthalene.
